WHILE MINK was busy gladhanding the last of the crowd congratulating him on his marksmanship, four Wood users built a stage at the very back of the yard, complete with a wall behind it to amplify acoustics. When they had it finished, Pirk jumped onto the stage to thank everyone for coming to her fifteenth birthday. Now Mink understood why the party was so huge. The fifteenth year of age was a very big deal to Elementalists, beginning the first ten-year phase of adulthood. He had taken Pirk to be twelve or thirteen. Before leaving the stage, she introduced a band comprised of her classmates.

Mink had celebrated his fifteenth about a year and a half ago. At the time, his humble gathering with Dreh and Pulti was perfect. He had stayed up all night with just the people who cared about him the most. There wasn’t a crowd, no big mess to clean up, no need to buy extra food. But now that Mink was part of a full-on fifteenth birthday party and actually enjoying himself, he wished he could have had a bigger celebration.

As the band took the stage and the attention away from Mink, they looked very much like wannabe musicians trying too hard to be professionals. But Mink was impressed as soon as they started playing. He urged Dreh and Pulti to follow him closer to the stage. This might be a good chance to start hooking them up, if the band would just play a song they could dance to.

Pulti came back with a Wooden bucket of frosty bottles which she proudly set at Dreh and Mink’s feet. Mink grabbed one, uncorked it, and took it in greedily. Dreh and Pulti hopped and twisted close by.

A few dozen Air users got above the crowd and danced with their Sky Step effect over everyone’s heads. Mink laughed at the sight of them. He felt in love with the world. Catching sight of Blin, he even gave him a smile and a nod. Blin returned half a smile before turning his back to Mink.

“I’m really glad you brought me here,” Mink confessed to Dreh, putting an arm around his buddy’s shoulders.

“I thought you would be. I guess it’s a good thing you came back early.”

This sobered Mink a bit. He had temporarily forgotten about his parents being out at Rift Ridge. Worry crept into his mind, but he flushed it out with nutty. The group did
